The scare triggered by a new strain of coronavirus has led to a dip in passenger count on flights to China, forcing airlines to suspend some flights from India to Chinese destinations and monitor the viability of the rest.
IndiGo airline has suspended its flights between Delhi and Chengdu and between Bangalore and Hong Kong from February 1.
The airline said on Wednesday that it was also closely monitoring the passenger count on its flights from Calcutta to Guangzhou, another Chinese city.
Air India said it was suspending its flights on the Delhi-Shanghai route from January 31 to February 14.
